Forum Post: Overrated stats - HR's, K's, RBI - truth or fallacy?
In response to jimedfred's comment: As stated by some smart people above, any stat can be over- or under-rated if used out of context. I personally love home runs, and probably overate them. However more »

Forum Post: Can We Please Trade for Papelbon!?
In response to Hfxsoxnut's comment: I was interested in this at one point but Paps loss of velocity and K's this year is a major red flag. He's also blown 4 saves in the last couple of weeks. But tho more »

Forum Post: RELEASE HIM!!!
THey are NOT releasing Bailey, who was actually pitching well until his last 5 innings this year. They will hope he straightens out, and worst case ry to mve him. Zero chance they release him right n more »

Forum Post: Papelbon: Tigers or Sox, and for who?
Avoid Papelbon. The Phillies have no minor league system whatsoever and will need serious return if they want to rebuild. They are undoubtedly prepared to eats lots of contract commitments. The c more »

Forum Post: I still like Garza in our rotation
I include Brentz right away. Using last year's Anibal Sabchez trade as a benchmark, Garza should cost one of Barnes or Webster, plus another minor leaguer like de la Cruz, Betts, Jacobs or Coyle. The more »

Forum Post: I still like Garza in our rotation
By the time Buchholz gets back, someone else will be hurt. This happens every year. There is no need to worry about who gets replaced. Price for the rental is the main issue. Certain names are un more »

Forum Post: I still like Garza in our rotation
Garza would be a great addition, but at what cost? He figures to be the best SP moved at the deadline. Lee isn't going anywhere IMO. The potential widespread interest in Garza might price him out more »

Gee, somehow I knew there would be dozens of "scouts" proclaiming Webster was not MLB material. âListen to the mustn'ts, child. Listen to the don'ts. Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the more »

Forum Post: Trade Proposals
Beyond having players they want, I am not so sure why Sox fans automatically think Philly is in sell mode. They are 7.5GB with 92 to play. And I seriously doubt their GM has no faith in the roster h more »

Forum Post: Poll: Your solution to the closer problem
Crain is good, but might cost a bit more because there figures to be significant interest. Gregg is haing a career year, but has a long, long history of being a questionable reliever. Marmol is f more »

Forum Post: Poll: Your solution to the closer problem
In response to joel49's comment: I want to see what Miller can do. He has lights out stuff, and that's what a closer needs. To those who says he walks too many, keep in mind that he's averaging abou more »

Forum Post: Trade Proposals
In response to Alibiike's comment: One SP is what we need and I would look at either Houston or Miami for help. Maybe Fernandez or Nolasco. Give the closer role to Tazawa or Uehara. We don't need any more »

Forum Post: Trade Proposals
I could see the Sox going after Jesse Crain, for one of Brentz, Workman, Britton or Marrero. Gallardo is no better than Lester, and his 90% contact rate is a huge factor. And the Brewers bullpen h more »

Forum Post: Iglesias and his bat...
The conclusion I came to was that he is both insanely lucky and better than we expected. If he does ultimately become a .270 hitter, that is waaaaay beyond what even his most ardent supporters pipe d more »
